People, forever having all the hopes,

and people, always believing in a miracle, 

and people, working so hard to achieve the goal

and people, driving to an endless road

 

People, starting to have downfalls,

and people, holding their dreams and won’t let it go

and people, working hoping wishing praying 

and people, giving all to reach the goal. 

 

But then they start to realize

that life is not a simple road

complicated tortuous dangerous

blowing out the hope in their souls

as they walk as they run

heavy steps on the road lost in the circle

 sad people, mad people, crazy people

 

people, losing all they have on road

and people, doubting the meaning of his goal 

and people, no longer trying to find the route 

and people, are like bodies without souls

 

people, feeling the sore pain from their throats

and people, leaving their pride what they once wrote for 

but people, with blood and tears to catch the hope

and people choose to follow their inner selves 

 

then they start to realize

that life is not a simple road

complicated tortuous dangerous

blowing out the hope in their souls

watch it fall, watch it break and disappear 

people still kneel down on the road 

 sad people, mad people, crazy people…

 

people are so called fools somehow 

blindly chasing the things they want 

even know what might come on the road

we are people never changing the route 

we are sad people

we are mad people

we are crazy people 

 

then they start to realize

that life is not a simple road

complicated tortuous dangerous

blowing out the hope in their souls

watch it fall, watch it break and disappear 

people still crawling on the road 

 we are sad people, 

we are mad people,

we are crazy people…
